Fuck it. I'm using AI generated sprites for my platform game project (assuming it works out). OpenGameArt's selection is subpar. Itch.io's assets have dumb license restrictions. And I'm not going to find some artist who is going to reject my commissions or demand that I change shit.
The anti-AI crowd already hates me for other reasons. Why should I do anything to make them happy? And by my definition, the assets I'm generating are AI assisted (not "slop") because they will be created using rough drafts that I made myself (I became somewhat of a competent artist over the years).
